Clinical predictors of post–liver transplant new‐onset heart failure
Waqas Qureshi, Chetan Mittal, Umair Ahmad, Zaid Alirhayim, Syed Hassan, Sophia Qureshi, Fatima Khalid – 2 April 2013 – Objectives of this study were (1) to evaluate preoperative predictors of systolic and diastolic heart failure in patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT) and (2) to describe the prognostic implications of systolic and diastolic heart failure in these patients. The onset of heart failure after orthotopic LT remains poorly understood. Data were obtained for all LT recipients between January 2000 and December 2010.
